$A$ composite string is made up by joining two strings of different masses per unit length $\mu$ and $4\mu$. The composite string is under the same tension. $A$ transverse wave pulse $Y = (6 \text{ mm}) \sin(5t + 40x)$,where $t$ is in seconds and $x$ in meters,is sent along the lighter string towards the joint. The percentage of power transmitted to the heavier string through the joint is approximately ..... $\%$

Select the correct alternative$(s)$ :-
$(A)$ Number of nodes equals to number of antinodes in closed organ pipe.
$(B)$ In open organ pipe,if number of antinodes is $m$,then number of nodes will be $m-1$.
$(C)$ If frequency of $4^{\text{th}}$ harmonic of open organ pipe is $400 \ Hz$,then frequency of $2^{\text{nd}}$ overtone of closed organ pipe of same length is $250 \ Hz$.
$(D)$ Time interval between successive maxima or minima (for superposition of two waves) is $\Delta t = \frac{1}{|f_1-f_2|} \ s$.

$A$ pipe closed at one end has a length of $0.8 \ m$. At its open end,a $0.5 \ m$ long uniform string is vibrating in its second harmonic and it resonates with the fundamental frequency of the pipe. If the tension in the wire is $50 \ N$ and the speed of sound is $320 \ m/s$,the mass of the string is: (in $g$)

Two superimposing waves are represented by the equations $y_1 = 2 \sin 2 \pi(10 t - 0.4 x)$ and $y_2 = 4 \sin 2 \pi(20 t - 0.8 x)$. The ratio of $I_{\max}$ to $I_{\min}$ is ........
